Amritsar Photo Store

Amritsar Photo Store is located at No. 28-29 in Kucha Chaudhary. If you know Chandni Chowk, you know how busy it gets. We are right opposite the SBI, which makes it easier for people to find us in all the chaos. Our shop is full of cameras, lenses, and old photo equipment. It smells a bit like old paper and electronics in here. We’ve been in this spot for a long time, watching the crowds go by every single day. Some people come in to get photos taken and others are looking for a specific part for their camera. It’s a small space, so we have to stack things high. The lighting isn't always the best, but we make it work. Chandni Chowk is never quiet, so there’s always noise from the street coming through the door. We don't use any fancy marketing tricks. People just know we are here in Kucha Chaudhary. Sometimes the power goes out and we just wait it out with a cup of tea. It’s a simple life running a photo shop. We see all kinds of people, from tourists to locals who have lived here forever. We keep our ledgers by hand mostly and try to keep track of everything on the shelves. It’s a bit of a squeeze when there are more than two customers inside, but we manage. We just like photos and the machines that make them. It’s been our daily life for years.
